Kenyans in social media platforms have showered opposition leader Raila Odinga for his kind act he did in 2012 that had not been covered the media but has been brought into limelight.
According to the report, Nelly Cheboi the CNN 2022 Heroes award winner revealed that it was Raila Odinga who came through to help her fulfill her dream by giving her Kshs 300, 000 to facilitate her travel to the US. Cheboi claimed that if it was not for the intervention of Raila she would have been stuck in Kenya and her scholarship would have probably been awarded to a different person.
This was in 2012 when Cheboi score an A and was offered a scholarship to further her studies in America, she was revealing this during an interview after winning the lucrative award.
This has left many kenyans praising Raila Odinga claiming that chances are that Raila Odinga has been doing a lot of charity work without letting the media know.

Below are some of the reactions from kenyans.
